August

The handle reads "Bleuetière" - a blueberry farm, often pick-your-own.

Yesterday, driving up into the Laurentians toward Mount Tremblant, we passed many roadside stands with signs that said "Fraises du Jour" -- "Berries of the Day." The offering of the day was often, however, sweet corn, along with little baskets of raspberries, blueberries, or currants. And yesterday was the first day I've ever seen gooseberries for sale in a grocery store.
